SEOUL, Aug. 10 (Yonhap) -- K-pop boy band Seventeen's Seungkwan and Dino will enlist together on Oct. 26, their agency said Monday, while fellow member Mingyu will begin alternative military service next month.
Pledis Entertainment said in a notice posted on the K-pop fan community platform Weverse that Seungkwan and Dino would join the military brass band in the South Korean Army.
The agency asked fans not to visit the boot camp on the day of their enlistment, saying the venue will be crowded with other recruits and their families.
"Mingyu will fulfill his mandatory military service starting Sept. 10," Pledis said, adding there would be no official event either on the day he begins his service or when he later enters the military training center.
The agency also asked fans not to visit Mingyu's workplace for alternative service.
The three members will take part in their scheduled activities as planned before beginning their service, Pledis said.
With them, all Seventeen members -- apart from S.Coups, who was exempted from military service, Chinese members The8 and Jun, and U.S. national Joshua -- will have fulfilled or be fulfilling their military duties.
